This Strat Is as Beautiful as It Is Playable

You've never seen a Stratocaster® quite like the FENDER® American Select Stratocaster HSS. This solidbody electric guitar is what Strat® aficionados have been hoping for. You get premium tonewoods, high-end appointments, and custom electronics, all wrapped up into a highly-collectible (and playable) Stratocaster design. It's the Strat that helped form the sound of modern music, now built as much for looks as it is for tone and feel. From the rich sound to the smooth playability, the Fender Select Stratocaster HSS is in a class all its own.



Fender Select Stratocaster HSS Solidbody Electric Guitar at a Glance:
  • Premium tonewoods for a premium guitar
  • Custom electronics for amazing Strat sounds
  • Channel-bound rosewood fingerboard gives you extraordinary fretting comfort

Premium tonewoods for a premium guitar
Fender held nothing back when designing the Select Stratocaster HSS. In fact, we've never seen a Strat like this at Sweetwater before. It's got a highly-figured flame maple top, highlighted by a hand-stained finish. The neck is figured maple, quartersawn for extreme strength. And the compound-radius rosewood fretboard is buffed, an extra dose of class you won't find on many guitars. While these details look amazing, they all add to the incredibly rich tone of the Fender Select Stratocaster HSS.

Custom electronics for amazing Strat sounds
The Fender Select Strat HSS's two single-coil pickups and single Humbucker™ were wound and voiced specifically for the Select series. You won't find these pickups anywhere else. They're slightly overwound, for a lively output that's rich and vibrant. They're a perfect match for getting classic Strat tones from virtually any amplifier.

Channel-bound rosewood fingerboard gives you extraordinary fretting comfort
Channel-bound? What does this mean? In the Select Stratocaster HSS, Fender has actually inlaid a compound-radius rosewood fingerboard into the guitar's thick C-shaped neck, so the perimeter of the neck itself is the actual binding. It's a novel and innovative approach that creates a unique, stylish look, while giving you an uber-comfortable, buttery fretting-hand feel with delightfully rounded edges and no side seam between neck and fingerboard.

Fender Select Stratocaster HSS Solidbody Electric Guitar Features:
  • Classic Stratocaster design with premium tonewoods, construction, and custom electronics for a top-shelf playing experience
  • Flame maple top with a hand-stained finish for a collectible look
  • Thick, modern C-shape maple neck with hand-rubbed oil finish
  • Channel-bound rosewood fingerboard with 9.5"-14" compound radius supports smooth, relaxed playing up and down the neck
  • Custom-voiced, overwound pickups, developed exclusively for the Select series
  • Quartersawn maple neck enhances rigidity and resonance
  • Tweed hardshell case included

Whether you buy for looks, feel, or tone, the Fender Select Stratocaster HSS will exceed your expectations!

Recommended Accessories

Everything was exactly as promised. I was impressed with the phone call I received from your guy when I had just placed the order. He was very thorough and professional in every way. I love my new digital piano. Your wide selection and excellent service as well as your "3 Payment Plan" and the 2 year warranty sealed the deal for me on this purchase. No one else could come close.
